Chapter 2365
Even if Nicole intended to use herself as bait, Jared could absolutely not allow her to be put in harm’s way.
Both Nicole and Jared had agreed to the plan, so all Lulu could do was remind, "You must be careful. Snow is
probably out of her mind."
"Don't worry, she doesn't have what it takes to harm me." A dark glint crossed Nicole's eyes.
Even if her combat skills were not what they used to be, dealing with Snow would not be a problem.
"So, if she does come, when is it going to be?" Lulu darted her eyes to the window outside.
Hearing that, Nicole could not help but chuckle. "Even if she does make her move at this time, she wouldn't show
herself. She'll wait for the right opportunity to strike."
"Which would probably be when you're resting in the evening, " Lulu guessed.
Nicole shook her head. "I'm not sure. She's like a frightened bird now, so we should expect her to do something

Rationally, Snow might choose to strike in the quiet of the night, but they also realized that she might suspect that
they would anticipate that, so it would be difficult to predict when she would show up to make a move.
"She sure has the guts to flee. Doesn't she know she'll only add to her growing list of charges?" Lulu coldly sneered,
feeling that Snow was just digging herself a deeper grave.
"She might have reached her limit this time." Nicole's eyes darkened slightly.
As Harvey did not acknowledge their relationship in the past, his favor and good graces had been hard-won. But all
of it had been dashed away, as the outcome had turned out to be what it was. Because of this, Snow probably had
a hard time handling the blow. However, even if she could not cope with the fact that they had made a fool out of
her, it was not Nicole's responsibility to make things right.
"She's brainless and greedy. She's only got herself to blame." Lulu rolled her eyes, flashing a look of disdain.
Nicole shrugged her shoulders. 'You're right. Who can she blame but herself?'
"It's about time now, so I'll head off to our office," Nicole announced and walked off.
Since Jared did not indicate that he would be leaving anytime soon, Lulu figured that he would stay to take care of
Nicole.
After Lulu had left, Nicole looked at Jared and said, "You should head off to Johnston Group as well. I'll be fine on my
own."
"There's nothing urgent at work that requires my attention." Jared's eyes remained still and calm.
Max would handle things on the company's end, and if something important came up, he could bring it to the
hospital.
Nicole shook her head, and knowing that Jared was not leaving, she allowed him to stay. After all, he would not
oblige even if she insisted that he should leave.
"Rest a little while more." Jared stepped forward to help Nicole lie down, but she waved him off. "I'm not tired. Why
don't you bring my laptop here?"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe could not stand lying down like this all the time, so she might as well find something to do.
However, Jared refused. "You can either sit up or lie down, but you must rest."
Nicole glared at Jared with a hint of resentment. She was injured, but she was not weakened to the point where she
could not take care of herself.
Seeing the look of reluctance on her face, Jared compromised. "Should I turn the TV on for you instead?"
Since she was not allowed to work now, it was better for her to find something to kill time and relax.
Knowing there was no other choice, Nicole agreed. "Fine."
After Jared had turned the TV on for her, Nicole switched through a few channels before settling on the financial
news channel.
"Recently, there has been a slight fluctuation in DillCorp's stock price. The company’s General Manager, Mr. Dillon,
is working to stabilize the situation..." Nicole squinted as she listened to the news report.
As it turned out, Dillon had seemingly adopted James's plan. Anything that happened next would depend on how
well Harvey, Everett, Dillon, and James played their roles.
"Don't worry about these minor issues." Jared's eyes darkened as he asked Nicole to change the channel.
